Circle of Serpents

The Circle of Serpents is made up of people with a fascination for snakes, and the strange powers that lie within them. These druids form societies in massive tunnels, or live in normal society. Leaders are generally the most knowledgeable people in their tribes about snakes and snake-like creatures. As a member of this circle, your magic is themed around snake-like creatures.

Serpent Tricks

When you choose this circle at 2nd level, you learn the Poison Spray Cantrip. In addition, due to your knowledge of venom and connection to the power of snakes, it no longer requires a saving throw.

Serpent Shape

Starting at 2nd level, your Wild Shape is altered. Whichever creature you choose, you now appear as a snake of the same size as that creature, with features from said creature. As a snake, you have advantage on stealth checks. You have all the same abilities, with the exception of things requiring limbs other than wings. These are replaced with a bite attack doing the same amount of damage. All melee attacks do an extra 2d6 Poison damage in Wild Shape.

Circle Spells

Your mystical affinity with serpents infuses you with the ability to cast certain spells. At 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 9th level you gain access to circle spells connected to serpents and snake magic.

Once you gain access to a circle spell, you always have it prepared, and it doesn’t count against the number of spells you can prepare each day. If you gain access to a spell that doesn’t appear on the druid spell list, the spell is nonetheless a druid spell for you.

Druid Level	Spells
3rd	find steed(Steed Manifests as a constrictor snake, but sized Huge instead of Large), protection from poison
5th	vampiric touch, conjure animals(Some form of snake only)
7th	polymorph(Only turns into snake-like creatures and objects), black tentacles(Manifests as energy snakes in your choice of color, deals poison damage)
9th	[Tooltip Not Found], hold monster(Manifests visible energy snake wrapped around target)

Serpent Invoke

Starting at 6th level, you gain the power to invoke magic from powerful serpentine beings. Gain one Eldritch Invocation. Invocations which would affect eldritch blast affect poison spray instead, and Eldritch Invocations which would use Charisma use Wisdom instead.

Ethereal Serpent

Starting at 10th level, you may expend two uses of your Wild Shape to become a couatl, yuan-ti mind whisperer, red dragon wyrmling(Appears as a serpentine Dragon), or Iron Cobra. In addition, you gain access to Cantrips while in Wildshape.

Wild Venom

Starting at 14th level, every Time you do Poison Damage, roll on the Wild Magic Table.
